Ran into quite a bit of snow a couple weeks ago when the wife & I took a ride on the Maverick.....
     

     



They finally bottled my favorite beer & they put it in a 16oz aluminum bottle.....

Steve - You're very welcome & thanks a bunch !! Mya has just been outstanding & she's smart as heck. I too hope that buck & the numerous others survive life in this small town. Some of the towns folk hate them being around, but the wife & I just love seeing them.

I understand some folks not wanting deer near their homes because of damage to landscaping and vegetable  gardens. Also always possibility of motor vehicle accident and contracting Lyme or other tick borne disease present on the deer.

Missoulafish thank you the markings on bird's chest look similar to a red tail hawk's which are a common raptor here in New York.  Red tail's have brown heads and tips of tail feathers are a red/brown color.
